The Finally Blog



Pretty much the Cold War was a a back and forth arguement between the United States and the Soviet Union. It all started because communism was starting to grow and the U.S wanted to stop it. Through out this war, The two countries were bombing each other trying to get the other one to surrender. IT took a very long time, but finally the U.S came out of the Cold War winners! This excited the United States but also showed a sign of relief for the Government and the Military

The H-bomb



The hydrogen bomb was created by the United States to help comtrol the war with the Soviet Union. The first H-bomb was started to be created in 1950, by the United States. The U.S had used 2 or 3 nucleur test for the hydrogen bomb. When the United States first used the hydrogen bomb, the Soviets were very suprised how powerful the bomb really was. Once the bomb had been set off, about a month later the President asked for another hydrogen bomb to be made incase the Soviets try to attack back. An as the President said, the Soviets did attack back with there own hydrogen bomb. After the Soviets had set theres off, the president ordered for the 2 hydrogen bomb to be detinated. The soviets could not handle the 2 bomb. So they finally came through and ended the war with the Americans. People think the war was ended because the Soviets were scared of more hydrogen bombs being used on them. But they didnt know the Americans on had 2 and it would have teken the U.S many many months to even have another one made.
